“Dear Lorna, I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for all you did for me and my family these past few weeks. More important than providing us wonderful, caring nurses, it was clear that you cared and truly listened. In all the years my father was battling his disease, the people who cared and listened were few and far between. I will always be grateful for the kindness you showed to me and my family.”
